1) Left TTG
TTG was the company I worked for a good whole 3 years.
I am very close with my colleagues such that we would make plans on weekends to hang out even after seeing each other 8hours / 5 days.
My boss likes me enough to give in my whims and requests.
I was senior enough to have things going my way, taking the ocassional day off (ah-hem) and there was a trip planned to US should I stay on.
It was a comfortable environment.
But thats the reason why I chose to leave. To be honest, the feeling of being unhappy in my job has built up over the past few months. Initially, I brushed it away thinking it is one of those usual cycles but gradually, the dread feeling became stronger.
I am not someone who settled for second best (generally) or that settled just because.
3 years with the company it is too much for a comfortable environment. I might learn but my learning curve is getting gentler. I needed a steeper learning curve, I needed to do more and I needed to do something different.
Wells, if you know me you should know there is never a reason for just a decision made / emotions felt. It usually is an accummulation of reasons / factors / emotions.
I was getting frustrated with my boss (the one who likes me, unfortunately). I was getting frustrated with the vendors. I was getting frustrated with the office location. I was getting frustrated with some of my incompetent colleagues.
So many reasons for me to leave.
And so I did.
It was a rather hurried departure! Everybody was travelling and there was no proper farewell party in Singapore of sort which I am sure, it may not have serve its purpose because I plan to catch my colleagues often!
And guess what they got for me??
They super-imposed my face to my all time idol - Kevin Cheng's "poster". HAHAHAHAHA my goodness I literally ROL - Roar Out Loud!
It was rather emotional for me when I left the office. I sat in Gek's car, quiet as a mouse and occassionally sprout my memories of TTG to Gek.
2) Started on a new job
Unfortunately, I did not have much time to rest! I had Thurs and Fri off which I was occupied with a good friend of Nick's wedding so not much time to rest and I am back to work on a Monday.
I am now with Pacific World - Account Executive.
Doing events especially in the MICE industry, serving clients who are wanting to do their events in Singapore.
On second day of my work, I was involved in an event took place in Ku De Ta.
Subsequently, I came across few proposals my clients did that had events taking place in really high end places in Singapore.
This is new and refreshing and although the scale of event is smaller than my previous job role - Exhibitions, it was still many learning experience for me.
Now it is 2nd week to the job and I am enjoying it!
I never regret my decision to leave and take this on.
Bless me with smooth sailing and more enjoyable work ahead!
3) Licensed driver
I am finally a licensed driver!
After 4 tries of BTT, 3 tries of ADT and 4 tries of TP, I am now offically a driver.
I nearly teared ok. If I failed this time of TP again, I would need to re-take my ADT. ARGH!!!
There was one point I thought I could fail, turning into wrong lane. But heng ah, apparantely not major error for a failure.
The 3 above were already causing my emotions on turmoil.
There is another happening going on but till I have more concrete update then I shall update!
In the meantime, I am enjoying life. :)
Would be better if I get more moolah :))
And lesser of a fleshy figure :P
